It’s interesting how stress has different effects on different people. For instance, when women get stressed, they look haggard, whereas stress does not have this effect on men. Some people eat when they get stressed, while some people can’t eat when they’re stressed. I for one, get emotional when I’m stressed, which I doubt is very uncommon. Some people can’t sleep when stressed and for some people, stress induces sleep. For some people, stress acts as motivation while in others, it destroys their confidence.
So why do we put ourselves in positions of stress? It almost always disrupts our lives and yet many of us thrive on that feeling you get when you’ve waited to the last minute to do something or when you’re almost at your breaking point. Especially in iB where we all have those horribly stressful nights but we can’t really complain because we signed up for it. So I guess it’s just our masochistic nature.
